Excuses

You get the idea. I would also have thrown in some kind of excuse about the weather but it has been unremitting doom and gloom since pretty much the 1st July, so that one goes out the window straight away.

The news updates have been trickling through and apart from the odd nuggest here and there, it has been either news about Xabi, Javier or the fact that the club is about to be declared insolvent.
